I got them out quickly. They were successful and showed up ready to play. Individually there were some really good things with the young players, but collectively it was not very good.Oakland backup quarterback Matt McGloin threw a pair of first-quarter touchdown passes after the Cardinals committed two turnovers in a span of about 30 seconds.George Atkinson III, listed as Oaklands fourth-string running back, scored on runs of 53 and 35 yards.He is very good and very hungry to be a part of the team, Raiders coach Jack Del Rio said.Palmer completed 3 of 5 passes for 31 yards. The biggest play of the drive came when David Johnson faked out a defender at the line of scrimmage and raced for a 23-yard gain.It was kind of like a little bit of a tease, Palmer said. You want to get a couple more series in.Carr completed 3 of 7 passes for 44 yards.Del Rio said its always nice to win but theres a lot of things weve got to do better.

Humphries is Arizonas starting right tackle. He was solid in run-blocking, but struggled some against the pass rush Friday. He didnt give up a sack, and much of the time he was going against All-Pro Khalil Mack.ROOKIE WATCHRaiders: Safety Karl Joseph, Oaklands first-round draft choice who is coming off knee surgery, played in the first series and had one tackle.Cardinals: Third-round draft pick Brandon Williams, who won the starting cornerback job in training camp, had a rough start Friday. He was beaten several times, including on the Holmes TD. He improved as the game went on and recovered Holmes fumble in the second quarter.I thought Brandon competed extremely well, Arians said. You knew theyd go after him. ... It was a nice throw-and-fade in the end zone. Hell learn to play those balls better.POSITION BATTLESRaiders: Menelik Watson played his first game since an Achilles injury in his bid to win the starting right tackle job.Cardinals: With Justin Bethel still recovering from foot surgery, Williams won the starting job at cornerback in training camp and Arians has said Bethel will have to earn it back. Nelson was the first choice as a punt returner, but Arians has said he could give John Brown time there, and Nelsons fumble may have made that even more likely.QUOTABLEPalmer on David Johnson (three carries, 31 yards), Nothing different than what I see every day in practice.
